For your own peace of mind only use an electrician who is registered with NICEIC, NAPIT or a similar competent person scheme. Technical competence and ability to meet relevant technical and safety standards and codes of practice is an important factor when choosing an electrician.

Are they fully insured? It pays to check that the tradesperson has public limited liability. Better to be safe than sorry.

Last but not least, make sure you obtain a comprehensive quote, detailing all the work to be done so you both know what the job involves from start to finish and, most importantly, what you are paying for.

In England and Wales, any electrical installation work carried out in your home needs to conform to the Part P Building Regulations Electrical Safety Rule, which was introduced in 2005. All electrical installations need to meet BS 7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations), and your electrician should issue you with a certificate to confirm that the work meets this safety standard.
